Mercedes already prepared to let Mick Schumacher go before first F1 race of year

Mercedes will be happy to let Mick Schumacher leave if another Formula 1 team offers a race seat.

That's according to team principal Toto Wolff, who signed the German as a reserve after Haas decided not to renew his race seat contract. It wasn't long after Schumacher's axing that the Austrian made it clear he wanted to bring him into the Mercedes fold.
